“PHONETICALLY SPEAKING” To reflect the fast pace of world news, my blog is probably best served as a stream-of-consciousness text. Fast and unadulterated. With this approach, and on first encounter, text might not seem to scan. This is because I am dyslexic. Instead of keeping the proof-readers busy, I would rather let my blog updates of my visual work stand as a record of my experience of dyslexia, which I am keen that you now get to enjoy too. Unlike some news outlets, I hereby excuse myself the need for a ‘corrections’ section! The excitement of a new language is something I’m quite familiar with, and it is with this ‘joie de vivre’ that I am delighted to guide you through my thought and work processes, more phonetically (than fanatically) speaking.
Mod Blockd Acessing!
The MoD stopped at the school gates!
The MoD have been trying to access children’s Tier 1 data. This data includes school children’s most personal details which include ethnicity, address, descriptions of pupils’ academic records, special educational needs and attendance. Also, they could find out whether they receive free school meals which is an indication of how wealthy their parents are.
This could be a highly dubious practice of recruitment. However, this is not the first time it has happened. They opened up MI5 to BBC children’s TV show Blue Peter to promote being a professional spy, putting the children through mental and physical challenges, every kid’s dream you might think. The BBC is a public service and should not be used to promote and glorify espionage. MI5 and MI6 intelligence services are some of the best in the world. They have managed to keep the British Royal family alive more successful than the Swiss guard at the Vatican.
